You can say that again, but now I've been ticked off.  I tried to be
polite and say "in the future."  Even MSIE isn't so dumb as to cram a
"pretty source" feature in.  If you need that crap, why don't you all
use an editor or word processor which does it better?  (Myself, I have
MSIE set up to throw the source into WZEditor which colorizes all the
tags to whatever specks you want.  Plus you've got the source in an
editor so you can do something with it rather than just stare at it.)
If you use the Win32 Lynx, you can do the same thing ('\' => 'e').  Even
if you don't, you can still force a unique color on what you're looking
for by evoking a '/'search (COLOR:7:).
                                 ^(Now, THAT is sensible -- like you say.)
Man that felt good.  Apologies.
